Suppose [i]P(x,y)[/i] = any point that lies on a circle with center (0,0) and radius 5. [br]Use what you've observed to write an equation that expresses the relationship among [i]x[/i], [i]y[/i], and [i]r[/i].
Is the point (4,-3) inside, outside or on this circle?
How can this be shown using the equation of the circle in part one?
Is the point (5.6) inside, outside or on the circle centred at (0,0) with radius 5?[br][br]
How would you use the equation of the circle to determine the position of a point?
